2. Joe Cabot: Because you're a faggot, alright?!
3. Mr. Pink: Why can't we pick our own colors?
4. Joe Cabot: No way, no way. I tried it once and it doesn't work. You get four guys, all fighting over who is going to be Mr. Black. But they don't know each other, so no one wants to back down. No way! I pick! You're Mr. Pink. Be thankful you're not Mr. Yellow.
5. Mr. Brown: Yeah, but Mr. Brown, that's a little too close to Mr. Shit.
6. Mr. Pink: And Mr. Pink sounds like Mr. Pussy! How about Mr. Purple? That sounds good to me, I'll be Mr. Purple.
7. Joe Cabot: You're not Mr. Purple. Some guy on some other job is Mr. Purple! You're Mr. Pink!
8. Mr. White/Larry: Who cares what your name is?
9. Mr. Pink: Yeah, that's easy for you to say: you're Mr. White. You have a cool sounding name. Look if it's no big deal for you to be Mr. Pink you wanna trade?
10. Joe Cabot: Hey, nobody's trading with anybody. This ain't a goddamn city counsel meeting you know. Now listen up Mr. Pink. There is two ways you can go on the job: my way or the highway. Now what's it gonna be Mr. Pink?

2. Mr. Pink: So is working at McDonalds but you don't feel the need to tip them do you? Why not? They're serving you food but no society says 'no', don't tip these guys over there but tip these guys over here. Thats bullshit.
3. Joe Cabot: Waitressing is the number one job for female non-college graduates. Its the one job basically any woman can get and make a living on. Reason is because of tips.
4. Mr. Pink: Fuck all that.
